The Ichimura-za was destroyed by fire and rebuilt numerous times over the years, including during the famous 1657 "Furisode Fire" or "[[Great Fire of Meireki]]".<ref name=kabuki21/> Ichimura Uzaemon III retired to become a priest in 1664, leaving ten-year-old [[Ichimura Takenojō I]] as his successor as ''[[zamoto]]'' (manager) of the theatre. It was then renamed the『Ichimura-Takenojō-za』for roughly a decade.<ref name=kabuki21/> In 1670, the [[Tokugawa shogunate|shogunate]] officially restricted the licensed theatres in the city to four; the Ichimura-Takenojō-za received a license along with the [[Nakamura-za]], [[Morita-za]] and [[Yamamura-za]].<ref name=kabuki21/> The Ichimura-za would be host to numerous premieres and significant historical events for the kabuki genre. March 1680 saw the very first performance of a ''[[sayaate]]'' scene, or love rivals' competition; [[Chikamatsu Monzaemon]]'s masterpiece ''[[The Battles of Coxinga]]'', the first kabuki play derived from a [[bunraku]] (puppet) play to be performed in Edo, premiered simultaneously in 1717 at the Ichimura-za, and two other licensed theaters.<ref name=kabuki21/> ''[[Sugawara Denju Tenarai Kagami]]'', which remains today among the three most famous and popular kabuki plays, debuted at the Ichimura-za in 1747.<ref name=kabuki21/>
